<h2 id="model-introduction-1ckswhvd3">Model Introduction</h2>Welcome to KiraDepth, a v-prediction model that aims to create a saturated 2.25/2.5D aesthetic.This is a simple merge I made for myself to do two things:<ol><li>Learn how to merge models, and</li><li>Create a style of model I enjoyed yet couldn't find a v-prediction equivalent.</li></ol><h2 id="recommended-settings-4gi71yz3i">Recommended Settings</h2>This is a v-prediction model. If you don't know what that is or don't know how to setup your local environment to support v-prediction models, please read NoobAI-XL's original model page <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/833294/noobai-xl-nai-xl">here</a> or the guide posted by L_A_X <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/articles/8962/noobai-xl-quick-guide">here</a>.ParametersThese are the settings I typically use when generating. Experiment to see what works best for you.<ul><li>CFG Scale: <code>3-5</code></li><li>Steps: <code>28-40</code></li><li>Sampling Method: <code>Euler</code> or <code>Euler A</code></li><li>Sampling Scheduler: <code>Normal</code> or <code>SGM Uniform</code></li></ul>PromptsThese are the prompts I use throughout all the example images. Again, experiment to see what works for you.<ul><li>Positive: <code>masterpiece, best quality, very aesthetic, good quality, newest, very awa, absurdres, highres</code></li><li>Negative: <code>worst quality, worst aesthetic, bad quality, normal quality, average quality, oldest, old, early, very displeasing, displeasing</code></li></ul><h2 id="merge-recipes-mes1g5km5">Merge Recipes</h2>Inside <a rel="ugc" href="https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/r1ocy31c6b6y1gi74l5o8/AGt9RYeItAHliUP-h6vPjdk?rlkey=n5a0wa0iif48vrbpm8pobi5ab&amp;st=vugc29kq&amp;dl=0">this dropbox</a> contains the workflows for each version (minus some A/B txt2img testing). These images have a ComfyUI workflow embedded, so you should be able to import them directly into ComfyUI.I'm continuously experimenting with new nodes and ideas to try to get the style I am looking for while hopefully not overcooking the model.Note about v1.0 workflow: The node SDXL Preset Merger is a custom node I wrote (that I've since phased out) to emulate a similar functionality seen in supermerger's MBW preset. I have not published this nor do I have plans to.<h2 id="afterword-t76t8ncdv">Afterword</h2>Thank you for checking out this model page. I am new to the scene of model creation and am pretty slow at figuring this stuff out.This is simply a project I sought out for my own creation that I decided to share with the community.If you have questions about my merging process or are willing to point me to resources/guide me in merging models, write a comment or DM me!

KiraDepth

Adds a bit more depth (namely better rendering/shading) back into KiraDepth while retaining most of the original 2.25/2.5d aesthetic. First experiment with adding in an Illustrious model, but I think it came out okay.
